knights of Labor I!

Read what Judge Gustave Cook
said of you in May, 1886. The man
who If he had the power would crush
out all labor organizations, now poses
as the apostle of Personal Liberty"
Surrender, unconstitutional and complete,
should be ia 81 demanded, and after this VIII
be time to assert their claims.
Until they do surrender. let such force as
will compel It be brought down upon them.
and let the contest be short, sharp and deci-
siye.
The knights Of Labor cannot shirk the
consequences they and they alone have
brought about. Who began this devilish
In surrectiony
who fired the souls ofthe communists and
anarchists of Chicagoy
Who organized the seIzing Of property
with violent handsy
Who drew the first blood of innocent men
who went out peaceab'y, but indusIriously
TO labor for the honest support OF their
wives aud childrens
Who forbade the furnishing offood. cleth-
ing. or even employment, TO men and
women who were lawfully and peacefully
pursuing laudable employment!
Is slow death by starvation less
wicked, cruel and devilish than the quick
destruction of brave men aud officers by
dynamite
Not drop Of blood has been shed, not a
groan has been wrung, not pang has been
suffered in all this miserable business for
which the knights ofLabor are not directly
and Immediately responsible.
Point TO a single instance where these de-
leciable knights have ever organized TO
enforce the law
They make pompous profers OF their
services 10 protect property and aid the law
officers, but whom have they ever an rested,
or when have they ever forbidden the evil
deeds being constantly done in their inter-
ests and behalf!
IL knights OF Labor have not done these
devihsh deeds then who has!
Where Is the offender brought to justice
for these crimes who is not q knight
why is IL that every crime done Is d.
rectly in the interest and direction Of the
accomplishment Of their purpo'esf
IL IL too thin. The Knights Of Labor are
responsible, and their -cowardly disayowal
Of the responsibility IL q travesty upon the
title they have flched from honor and chiy-
airy.
they have stolen the livery Of heaven to
serve the devil In.

IT is now in ORDER for the antis tC

THE city council shouldn't lose ,

REMEMBER the threatening, insult
ing letters to DIR. Carroll and the more
dastardly efforts of the ants 70 create
the impression that he wrote them to
himself.
The ants think they have the color
ed vote by the ear, but, the colored

DIR. II. T. HANKS will address the

The doctors ability and popularity
will secure him large house of pros

'fBIsHoPs Turner and Wayman will
tell the colored people of it. If we

ANTI LEADERS.
The Arson Western is an enterpris-
ing paper. In addition to large
well-flled weekly on Thursday, it is
sues Sunday morning paper There
is real enterprise which would be CON-
mendable in town Of ten times its
population. Success TO you Nc.
And etu Governor Ross has not revised
his views on the subject of prohibition
Houston Post.
Who said he would? The HERALD
doesn't see any necessity for tho Gov
ernor TO change his views, nor has II
seen any other intimation that he ought
to. The pros believe in free speech
and an unbranded ballot
The committee soliciting subscrip-
tions to stock In the Cotton Manufac-
turing Company, having been sue
cessful in their enterprise, have called
a meeting of the subscribers to stock
for Tuesday evening at the Merchants
Exchange to perfect organization and
elect directors. This is very gratifying
to Dallas people, and will 10 doubt be
received with joy throughout Texas.
The San Antonio council passed
q law prohibiting the prohib.tionists
from speaking on the plaza which is as
public rs the streets of the city. The
speakers respected their will and went
to the Federal square; but the antis
were determined that the prohibitory
spirit of the council must prohibit, so
they followed and with
missiles and rotten eggs
drove the pros away. The ants seem
to be very much afraid the pros will
use this outrage for campaign pur-
poses. The prohibitionists would
scorn to appeal for votes 10 the SYM
pathy or prejudices of any class; and
the only way that the HERALD would
refer to the incident would be TO
prove by that and similar occurrences
that the mass of the ants is composed
of lawlcss class of men who think
such methods arc their strongest argu-
ments against the prohibition of de-
bauchery, robbery of the support of
women and children, and the greatest
crime-producer in this country, and
that the few good men who give them
aid and encouragement are getting
ashamed of their following.

LETTER FROM SHREWSBURY, PA.
An Old Mans Suicide-Making York q
City-Good Business Project
Sleighing, &c.
SHREWSBURY. PA. Jan

SHREWSBURY, IA, January lULn, 1901.
Messrs. Editors Mr.. John Devenny, aged Y
years, resident of Springfield township, living
near William Foutz's distillery this county, COM
mitted suicide this morning by hanging himself.
The deceased was a we'll to-do farmer and from
hard work and exposure was not able to 60 from
the houie to the barn, yet after eating hearty
breakfast and whilst the family were all absent
from the house, he managed to crawl up the stairs
to the garnet of the house and hung himself to
of the rafters of the roof Life was extinct when
found by the family. There is no reason given or
known by any one why the old man should have
committed the deed. The community where he
lived is greatly shocked over the death of the old
York is to be city. The Attorney General Of
Pennsylvania has directed the proper authorities
to issue the charter. It is just possible they have
an elephant on their hands when they get their
charter for the reason that they won't be able to
run it. They can't find man for mayor that will
give all parties satisfaction and there are those
who will not be satisfied, no matter who they get,
who will be grumbling all the time. There will
be fun ahead in getting the new organization to
work right.
Our Quarter Sessions Court was in session last
week, Judge James W. Latimer on the bench. A
large amount of business was transacted and many
cases tried during the week. This week Judge
Gibson is on the bench. It is not likely the court
will last all the week.
The newly elected officers have all entered upon
their duties. Those who we're the most bitterly
opposed will make the best officers.
Mr.. Fred. Heb, Of Railroad borough, has pur-
chased the remaining portion Of the railroad sta
ton property from Mrs. James Young, for $780,.
This means business revival at the old station,
backed by heavy capital. It looks now as if
there would be general boom from Shrewsbury
Station to Shrewsbury and east over the route Of
the old plank road, as was the case years ago.
We are having an abundance of good seighng.
number of sleigh,ng parties have come up from
Baltimore county, and am informed large par
ty is to be here early this week. They will stop
at Rafensburger's Hotel for supper and enjoy
ment for the evening. A good time is anticipated.

q man of ability and character; deprecating every
misappropriation of the revenues of the State col
Iected for the purpose of paying thepublic debt and
denouncing the same as crime against the peo-
pie; declaring that public Offices are public trusts,
not to be created for the benefit of individuals, nor
for the purpose of rewarding political services /;

of money in all forms at elections and against the
assessment Of holders for political purposes,

And entered into rest.

Rev. GLENN on the CHARITY Ball.

At the meeting of the Methodist Preachers As
ISOLATION in Baltimore, on Monday last, Rev. W.
T. D. GLENN introduced the following resolution,
which caused quite heated discussion:
"Having read in the daily papers that some
ladies of the city making arrangements for a
charity ball to raise funds for the poor therefore,
be it
"Reselued, That we hereby decidedly condemn
such methods, and hope the ladies will hereafter
abandon them"
Rev. Mr.. GLENN backed up his resolution by
saying that the word "charity" was the tag which
the devil put upon the ball and the ballroom to
give responsibility to dancing, that he may more
successfully draw down to his dominion those that
he otherwise would not get.
Rev. L. A. Wilson said while he did not approve
of balls, he wanted it understood that he did not
approve of the preachers meeting of Baltimore
straying out of its proper sphere and attacking
the charity ball. He said while many people
were not strictly religious, they were humanita-
rians, and contributed to charity through this
channel. He thought it bad taste for the meeting
to take up the subject. Revs. J. B. Stitt, D. II.
Carroll, L. T. Waterman, A. J. Gill and others
spoke on the subject.
Rev. Mr.. CIemm's resolution was killed, and a
much milder one was substituted, stating that the
meeting was opposed to balls and dances, and re-
quested the ministers to ask their members not to
take part in any held in the name of charity.

work for the cause. Reports from the committee

An Exciting Railroad incident.

On Wednesday morning of last week while the
gang of a passenger train on the Shenandoah
Valley Railroad, at point IL miles south Of the
Natural Bridge, were under the coaches repairing
the air-brakes, freight train, which was follow
ing, ran into the rear of it, but fortunately did no
damage except MASKING the rear platform of the
sleeper. The engineer of the passenger train
pulled the throttle wide open, hoping to avoid D
disaster, but the shock so terrific that he was
knocked out of his cab, and the train went rush
ing down the road with a full head of steam on
without engineer, fireman, conductor, baggageman
or brakeman on board After running nine miles
at the rate of sixty miles an hour it gradually
came to O standstill, the steam having become ex-
hausted. No one was injured, though the pas
sengers were almost frantic with fright and ex-
element. Their escape was marvellous.

@-It was rumored this week that political
combination had been formed between five lead
ing Republican and Democratic newspapers OF
the country to slaughter Cleveland in 1888 and
sauAnaa- tho -aanddacy of Blaine for the Presl-
dency. The report was contained IN dispatcn
from Cincinnati to the New York Star, and pur-
ported to give some particulars of an alleged in
terview between Henry Watterson, of the Louis
vile Courier-Journal, and Murat Hastead, OF the
Cincinnati Commercial, for the purpose of perfect
ing arrangements to further this end. The other
three papers named as being in the combination
are the New York Sun and Tribune and the GIN

truth in the rumor, although there are some
things about it that would seem to indicate

IT. The Maryland State Farmers convention
was held in Baltimore, on Wednesday and Thurs
day of this week and was attended by about three
hundred of the solid and progressive agricuturists
of the State, some twenty counties being repre-
scented. Ex- Gov. William 7. Hamilton presided,
with Mr.. William B. Sands, of Baltimore county,
as secretary. The proceedings throughout were
interesting, many of the delegates taking part in
the discussions and showing that they were well
posted upon those matters which most concern the
farmers. The opening address of Gov. Hamilton
was, as usual with him, forcible and to the point
and was well received by those present. Among
the leading matters considered was the establish.
ment of an agricultural experiment station and
the diseases among cattle and hogs, upon which
latter subject Mr.. T. Alex. Seth, of Baltimore
county, presented an able and interesting report,
followed by supplemental report on the same
subject from DR.. f. W. Patterson, inspector in
the Bureau of Animal Industry in the United
States, both of which were adopted. Ex-senator
Allen, of Hartford, offered resolution condemn
ing the system of taxation in the State, which
caused considerable discussion and was finally
laid on the table by decisive vote. 1t was de-
cided that the next annual meeting be held on
the first Wednesday in December.
